Deza was soon introduced to Annika’s father, who had just returned home from visiting a neighbor. He reiterated what he’d told Reba about protecting Annika and bringing her to the nearest Earth embassy, then he excused himself from the bridge under the pretense of checking the ship’s systems in the engineering room. In truth, he simply wanted to give Annika a chance to speak with her family alone.

He was happy for her, even if her happiness came at the price of his own.

Running a hand through his hair, he emitted a groan of frustration and entered the guest quarters. He made sure the room was adequately prepared for Annika, with the softest sheets on the bed and the kitchen area well-stocked. He also ensured the food replicator was functioning. It would be several Earth weeks until they reached the nearest Earth embassy.

Would that be a long enough time to convince her to become his mate and return to New Vaxx with him? Or would trying to win her heart only be futile in the end?

He cared for her. Truly and deeply. His heart ached at the mere thought of one day bidding her goodbye, never to see her again. She possessed a kind, sweet soul. He sensed it in the depths of his being every time he peered into her bottomless blue eyes. She would make a fine mate and a wonderful mother. There was nothing he would deny her. He would spend the rest of his days endeavoring to make her happy, if only she would give him a chance.

When he heard the doorway zip open, he turned to find Annika standing there, a multitude of emotions reflecting in her gaze. Joy, longing, and gratitude, to name a few. She ran to him and threw her arms around him.

Stunned, he rubbed his hands up and down her back, enjoying the feel of her in his arms. He tightened his hold on her, never wanting to let her go. A fierce sense of possessiveness stole through him, burning white hot and almost violent in its intensity.

How would he say goodbye when the time came?

How would he keep himself from forcing her to stay with him?

He didn’t know if he had the strength to do the right thing, having her in his life was too sweet a temptation. If only he could freeze this moment in time.

“Thank you, Deza,” she said, withdrawing slightly from the embrace to peer up at him. “I never thought I’d speak to my family again. My parents wanted me to tell you ‘Merry Christmas’ and they also want you to know how appreciative they are for all your help. My father has offered to pay you for all the trouble you’re going to on my account, as well. He’s prepared to wire you ten thousand galactic credits.”

“Money?” he asked in a clipped tone. He held her out by her shoulders and glared down at her, coldness gripping him, all the warmth from her embrace fleeing in the aftermath of the impersonal offer.
